约翰福音 9
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
治好生来瞎眼的人
9 耶稣走路的时候，看见一个生下来就瞎眼的人。 2 他的门徒问他：“拉比，这人生下来就瞎眼，是谁犯了罪？是他呢，还是他的父母呢？” 3 耶稣回答：“不是他犯了罪，也不是他的父母犯了罪，而是要在他身上彰显 神的作为。 4 趁着白昼，我们必须作那差我来者的工；黑夜一到，就没有人能作工了。 5 我在世上的时候，是世界的光。” 6 说了这话，就吐唾沫在地上，用唾沫和了一点泥，把泥抹在瞎子的眼睛上， 7 对他说：“你去西罗亚池洗一洗吧。”（西罗亚就是“奉差遣”的意思。）于是他就去了，洗完了，走的时候，就看见了。 8 那时，邻居和以前常常见他讨饭的人说：“这不是那一向坐着讨饭的人吗？” 9 有的说：“是他。”有的说：“不是他，只是像他。”他自己说：“是我。” 10 他们就问他：“你的眼睛是怎样开的呢？” 11 他回答：“那名叫耶稣的人和了一点泥，抹在我的眼上，对我说：‘你去西罗亚池洗一洗吧。’我去一洗，就看见了。” 12 他们说：“那人在哪里？”他说：“我不知道。”
法利赛人查问瞎眼的人
13 他们就把那个从前瞎眼的人带到法利赛人那里。 14 耶稣和了泥开他眼睛的那一天，正是安息日。 15 法利赛人又问他是怎样可以看见的。他告诉他们：“耶稣把泥抹在我的眼上，我一洗就看见了。” 16 有几个法利赛人说：“那个人不是从 神那里来的，因为他不守安息日。”另外有些人说：“一个罪人怎能行这样的神迹呢？”他们就起了纷争。 17 他们再对瞎子说：“他既然开了你的眼睛，你说他是甚么人？”他说：“他是个先知。”
18 犹太人不信他从前是瞎眼，现在才能看见的，于是把他的父母叫来， 19 问他们：“这是你们所说那生下来就瞎眼的儿子吗？现在他怎么又能看见呢？” 20 他的父母回答：“我们知道他是我们的儿子，生下来就瞎眼； 21 现在他是怎样可以看见的，我们不知道；谁开了他的眼睛，我们也不知道。你们问他吧；他已经长大成人，可以替自己讲话了。” 22 他的父母这样说，是因为怕犹太人，原来犹太人已经定好了，不论谁承认耶稣是基督，就要把那人赶出会堂。 23 因此他的父母说：“他已经长大成人，你们问他吧。”
24 于是法利赛人第二次把那从前瞎眼的人叫来，对他说：“你应当归荣耀给 神，我们知道这人是个罪人。” 25 那人回答：“他是不是个罪人，我不知道；我只知道一件事，就是我本来是瞎眼的，现在能看见了。” 26 他们就问：“他向你作了甚么呢？他怎样开了你的眼睛呢？” 27 他回答：“我已经告诉你们，但是你们不听；为甚么现在又想听呢？你们也想成为他的门徒吗？” 28 他们就骂他，说：“你才是他的门徒，我们是摩西的门徒。 29 我们知道 神曾对摩西说话；只是这个人，我们不知道他从哪里来。” 30 那人对他们说：“这就奇怪了，他开了我的眼睛，你们竟然不知道他从哪里来。 31 我们知道 神不听罪人的祈求，只听那敬畏 神，遵行他旨意的人。 32 自古以来，没有人听过生下来就是瞎眼的，有人可以开他们的眼睛。 33 这人若不是从 神那里来的，他就不能作甚么。” 34 他们说：“你的确是在罪中生的，还敢教训我们吗？”就把他赶出去。
35 耶稣听见他们把他赶出去，后来遇见他的时候，就对他说：“你信人子吗？” 36 他说：“先生，谁是人子，好让我信他呢？” 37 耶稣说：“你已经见过他，现在跟你说话的就是他。” 38 那人说：“主啊，我信。”就向他下拜。 39 耶稣说：“我到这世上来是为了审判，使那看不见的能够看见，能看见的反而成了瞎眼的。”
40 有些和耶稣在一起的法利赛人听了这话，就说：“难道我们也是瞎眼的吗？” 41 耶稣对他们说：“如果你们是瞎眼的，就没有罪了；但现在你们说‘我们能看见’，所以你们还是有罪的。”
約翰福音 9
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
醫治盲人
9 耶穌在路上看見一個生來失明的人。 2 門徒問耶穌：「老師，這個人生下來便雙目失明，是因為他犯了罪呢，還是他父母犯了罪呢？」
3 耶穌說：「不是他犯了罪，也不是他父母犯了罪，而是要在他身上彰顯上帝的作為。 4 趁著白天，我們必須做差我來者的工作，黑夜一到，就沒有人能工作了。 5 我在世上的時候，是世界的光。」
6 耶穌講完後，便吐唾沫在地上，用唾沫和泥抹在那盲人的眼睛上， 7 對他說：「到西羅亞池去洗洗！」西羅亞是「奉差遣」的意思。那盲人照著去做，回來的時候已經能看見了。
8 他的鄰居和從前見他討飯的人說：「他不是那個常在這裡討飯的人嗎？」
9 有人說：「是他。」有人說：「不是他，只是長得像他。」
他自己說：「我就是那個人。」
10 他們問：「你的眼睛是怎麼好的？」
11 他回答說：「有一位叫耶穌的人和泥抹我的眼睛，叫我到西羅亞池子去洗。我照著去做，眼睛就能看見了。」
12 他們問：「那個人現在在哪裡？」他說：「我不知道。」
盤問復明的盲人
13 他們就把這個從前失明的人帶到法利賽人那裡。 14 耶穌和泥開他眼睛的那天是安息日。 15 法利賽人也查問他的眼睛是怎麼復明的。盲人便對他們說：「祂把泥抹在我的眼睛上，我去一洗，眼睛就看見了。」
16 有些法利賽人說：「那個人不是從上帝那裡來的，因為祂不守安息日。」有些人卻說：「如果祂是個罪人，又怎能行這樣的神蹟呢？」他們就爭論起來。
17 於是，他們又問那個盲人：「既然祂開了你的眼睛，你認為祂是什麼人？」
他說：「祂是先知。」
18 猶太人不相信他以前是瞎眼的，現在能看見了，便叫來他的父母， 19 問他們：「這是你們的兒子嗎？你們不是說他生來就瞎眼嗎？怎麼現在能看見了？」
20 他父母回答說：「我們知道他是我們的兒子，生來雙目失明。 21 至於他現在怎麼能看見了，我們就不知道了。是誰醫好了他，我們也不知道。他現在已經長大成人，你們可以去問他，他自己可以回答。」
22 他父母因為害怕那些猶太人，所以才這樣說，因為那些猶太人早就商量好了，誰承認耶穌是基督，就把他趕出會堂。 23 因此他父母才說他已經長大成人，叫他們去問他。
24 法利賽人又把那個從前失明的人叫來，對他說：「你應該把榮耀歸給上帝[a]！我們知道那個人是罪人。」
25 他說：「祂是不是罪人，我不知道；我只知道從前我是瞎眼的，現在能看見了。」
26 他們就問他：「祂向你做了些什麼？祂是怎樣醫好你眼睛的？」
27 他回答說：「我已經告訴過你們了，你們不聽，現在又問，難道你們也想作祂的門徒嗎？」
28 他們就罵他：「你才是祂的門徒！我們是摩西的門徒。 29 我們知道上帝曾對摩西講話，至於這個人，我們不知道祂是從哪裡來的。」
30 那人說：「祂開了我的眼睛，你們竟不知道祂從哪裡來，真是奇怪。 31 我們知道上帝不聽罪人的禱告，只聽那些敬拜祂、遵行祂旨意者的禱告。 32 從創世以來，從未聽過有人能把天生失明的人醫好。 33 如果這個人不是從上帝那裡來的，就什麼也不能做。」
34 法利賽人斥責他：「你這生來就深陷罪中的傢伙，居然敢教導我們！」於是把他趕了出去。
35 耶穌聽說了這事，後來祂找到這個人，對他說：「你信上帝的兒子嗎？」
36 他說：「先生，誰是上帝的兒子？我要信祂。」
37 耶穌說：「你已經看見祂了，現在跟你說話的就是祂。」
38 他說：「主啊！我信！」他就敬拜耶穌。
39 耶穌說：「我為了審判來到這世界，使瞎眼的可以看見，使看得見的反成了瞎眼的。」
40 有些跟祂在一起的法利賽人聽了這句話，就問：「難道我們也瞎了眼嗎？」
41 耶穌說：「如果你們是瞎眼的，就沒有罪了。但現在你們自稱看得見，所以你們的罪還在。」
John 9
Easy-to-Read Version
Jesus Heals a Man Born Blind
9 While Jesus was walking, he saw a man who had been blind since the time he was born. 2 Jesus’ followers asked him, “Teacher, why was this man born blind? Whose sin made it happen? Was it his own sin or that of his parents?”
3 Jesus answered, “It was not any sin of this man or his parents that caused him to be blind. He was born blind so that he could be used to show what great things God can do. 4 While it is daytime, we must continue doing the work of the one who sent me. The night is coming, and no one can work at night. 5 While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”
6 After Jesus said this, he spit on the dirt, made some mud and put it on the man’s eyes. 7 Jesus told him, “Go and wash in Siloam pool.” (Siloam means “Sent.”) So the man went to the pool, washed and came back. He was now able to see.
8 His neighbors and some others who had seen him begging said, “Look! Is this the same man who always sits and begs?”
9 Some people said, “Yes! He is the one.” But others said, “No, he can’t be the same man. He only looks like him.”
So the man himself said, “I am that same man.”
10 They asked, “What happened? How did you get your sight?”
11 He answered, “The man they call Jesus made some mud and put it on my eyes. Then he told me to go to Siloam and wash. So I went there and washed. And then I could see.”
12 They asked him, “Where is this man?”
He answered, “I don’t know.”
Some Pharisees Have Questions
13 Then the people brought the man to the Pharisees. 14 The day Jesus had made mud and healed the man’s eyes was a Sabbath day. 15 So the Pharisees asked the man, “How did you get your sight?”
He answered, “He put mud on my eyes. I washed, and now I can see.”
16 Some of the Pharisees said, “That man does not obey the law about the Sabbath day. So he is not from God.”
Others said, “But someone who is a sinner cannot do these miraculous signs.” So they could not agree with each other.
17 They asked the man again, “Since it was your eyes he healed, what do you say about him?”
He answered, “He is a prophet.”
18 The Jewish leaders still did not believe that this really happened to the man—that he was blind and was now healed. But later they sent for his parents. 19 They asked them, “Is this your son? You say he was born blind. So how can he see?”
20 His parents answered, “We know that this man is our son. And we know that he was born blind. 21 But we don’t know why he can see now. We don’t know who healed his eyes. Ask him. He is old enough to answer for himself.” 22 They said this because they were afraid of the Jewish leaders. The leaders had already decided that they would punish anyone who said Jesus was the Messiah. They would stop them from coming to the synagogue. 23 That is why his parents said, “He is old enough. Ask him.”
24 So the Jewish leaders called the man who had been blind. They told him to come in again. They said, “You should honor God by telling the truth. We know that this man is a sinner.”
25 The man answered, “I don’t know if he is a sinner. But I do know this: I was blind, and now I can see.”
26 They asked, “What did he do to you? How did he heal your eyes?”
27 He answered, “I have already told you that. But you would not listen to me. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you want to be his followers too?”
28 At this they shouted insults at him and said, “You are his follower, not us! We are followers of Moses. 29 We know that God spoke to Moses. But we don’t even know where this man comes from!”
30 The man answered, “This is really strange! You don’t know where he comes from, but he healed my eyes. 31 We all know that God does not listen to sinners, but he will listen to anyone who worships and obeys him. 32 This is the first time we have ever heard of anyone healing the eyes of someone born blind. 33 This man must be from God. If he were not from God, he could not do anything like this.”
34 The Jewish leaders answered, “You were born full of sin! Are you trying to teach us?” And they told the man to get out of the synagogue and to stay out.
Spiritual Blindness
35 When Jesus heard that they had forced the man to leave, he found him and asked him, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?”
36 The man said, “Tell me who he is, sir, so I can believe in him.”
37 Jesus said to him, “You have already seen him. The Son of Man is the one talking with you now.”
38 The man answered, “Yes, I believe, Lord!” Then he bowed and worshiped Jesus.
39 Jesus said, “I came into this world so that the world could be judged. I came so that people who are blind[a] could see. And I came so that people who think they see would become blind.”
40 Some of the Pharisees were near Jesus. They heard him say this. They asked, “What? Are you saying that we are blind too?”
41 Jesus said, “If you were really blind, you would not be guilty of sin. But you say that you see, so you are still guilty.”
